There's the respect that makes calamity of so long life, for who would bear the whips and scorns of time, the oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
Das ist wohl die Rücksicht, wenn wenn Elend oft zu hohen Jahren kommt. Wer möcht ertragen den Spott, der Zeiten Last, des Mächt'gen Druck, des Armen Misshandlungen?
